        @using (Html.BeginForm("FileUpload", "Home", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" })){             }   
  ``` \ your controller should have action method which would accept HttpPostedFileBase `` ```   public ActionResult FileUpload(HttpPostedFileBase file)        {            if (file != null)            {                string pic = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);                string path = System.IO.Path.Combine(                                       Server.MapPath("~/images/profile"), pic);                // file is uploaded                file.SaveAs(path);                 // save the image path path to the database or you can send image                // directly to database                // in-case if you want to store byte[] ie. for DB                using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())                {                    file.InputStream.CopyTo(ms);                    byte[] array =ms.GetBuffer();                }             }            // after successfully uploading redirect the user            return RedirectToAction("actionname", "controller name");        }  ``` --- Original Source: https://www.mindstick.com/forum/34295/how-to-upload-image-in-mvc Copyright © MindStick Software Pvt.
